[cobalt-users] URGENT - Help needed

[johnm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi there,

Somehow or other I have been locked out of my server - PortSentry thinks 
that it received a scan attack from my machine and promptly blocked me.

Active System Attack Alerts

host: forestsoftware.demon.co.uk/193.237.116.216 to TCP port: 79
Feb 27 16:44:28 ns portsentry[758]: attackalert: Host 193.237.116.216 has 
been blocked via wrappers with string: "ALL: 193.237.116.216"

Feb 27 16:44:28 ns portsentry[758]: attackalert: Host: 
forestsoftware.demon.co.uk/193.237.116.216 is already blocked Ignoring

etc....


Can anyone please give me some idea as to how I can get back onto my 
server ?

Cheers

John
